Enough to buy a house.

That seems like a lot for this question but it's honestly the only thing that significantly would. Cars and goods are great but just materialistic and I can live without them just fine. But give me a place for my family and I to live and our lives would be significantly improved, because we'd not have to deal with landlords, renting, we could modify the house to our needs, have pets and not stress about constant rent hikes and the possibility of being evicted.

I think everyone should have the opportunity to own their own house and politicians are betraying society and entire generations of people by doing things that work heavily against it.

When you have like 30 kids in a class and a limited budget then yeah, makes a lot of sense to come up with solutions like this.

For these two though if I knew them I'd just straight up give them a second PC for free to save them the hassle. You can do amazing things with refurbished PCs when budget and space constraints are a problem.

You could have a look at ex-business slimline PCs or laptops if two cases are out of the question. They'll take up less space overall than the typical PC case and are usually pretty power efficient. The former can also be upgraded if you are careful with what you choose and find the right slimline GPUs to fit in said cases. This is what I used to do for my kids particularly with ex-Dell PCs.

The thing is that you're not going to get a whole lot for your old parts, certainly not more than the benefit you gain by having a second PC, as by the time you sell it the parts would have depreciated in value quite a lot. But, it's neat I guess that PCs allow you to do stuff like this even if it would result in a bit of frustration.

You still need all the physical space that two PCs require except for the box which is only a small part of it. You still need all the peripherals for two people and once the 3060s are in it the power difference will be negligible between one or two PCs. On top of that you have all the inconvenience and problems that using in multiseat brings. Network gear is dirt cheap and maintaining two PCs is less hassle Vs this too.

Personally I think at the end of the day you're better off with two PCs even if the second one is a cheap second hand one. Especially since I assume the GPUs mean they're planning on gaming on it.

They practically are though once they upgrade it with two 3060s and the CPU.

What advantage do you get using one PC in this way instead of two?

I hope you don't go with your edit.

I'd rather uppercut myself.

Luckly they're pretty good at searching for obscure stuff that nobody's seen in a while.

This is what sabor rattling and fear mongering gets you, people are too gullible and scared to vote in their actual best interests because they think those interests are to run to the party that'll protect them from an imaginary evil. Combine that with left-wing governments often being incompetent and giving in to their drama moving further and further to the right to try to win what they perceive as the popular vote instead of properly combating it and a complicit bias media + online shills in their thousands and this is the outcome.

Yep that's why HR departments exist, they're there to hurd the cattle.

It's actually really great.. if you know how to interpret and apply the information on it to your situation and adapt as needed. A good new user experience it does not make however.
